Although Carolina started off the sea
con disastrously, there has been some hard
practice going on at the football grounds
during the past week, and the Garnet and
Black may show up somewhat better in
the fair week game against Davidson than
many think. The first practice game of
the season was with Ridgewood Club,
when the score stood 0 to 0 at the end
of the contest. Then Charleston College
was defeated by a score of 17 to 0. The
strong Georgia eleven beat Carolina 29
to 6, and last Saturday the Charleston
Athletics defeated the University squad
by a score of 15 to 4.
